In Candy Match, players place cards depicting one to three sweets. As soon as a player finds a card combination in which all the candy depicted is in pairs, they call "Candy match" and show their solution. If the symbol pairs are correct, the player receives all the cards involved in the matches; if they're wrong, each other player takes one card from the center of the table. Once the draw pile is exhausted and no more combinations can be found, the game ends and the player with the most points wins.
